Yes! What a beauty.
Someone at Boeing loves deltas.
Nice looking stealthy wing with twin engines.

Time for the Navy to cancel the overpriced single engine
gator bird and get a proper long range strike aircraft. 😀

Elisra SPS-3000

How does Spectra compare with a system like Elisra SPS-3000. Please share if you have any information.

Deino,
I was comparing with the magazine’s concept picture. I think the forward fuselage has a similar flattened profile that is bad for pilot visibility but may have some stealth advantages. The MiG’s proposal is a concept only..

Tejas

The Tejas is a nice aircraft. Its fantastic that a delta wing only configuration is being brought into production. The only other modern delta wing configuration I can think of is Boeing’s X-32.

I kinda wish that Tejas project definition started 10 years later. If that had happened we could have seen some of the X-32’s ideas adopted. One piece delta wing, DSI, vectored thrust. Personally, I think the X-32’s wing is just beautiful. A really modern delta wing.

I’d have to give Tejas and Gripen a tie in the looks department. The Tejas has merit because it is a delta wing only design. It would have been fantastic if the Dassault Rafale had continued the tradition. The Gripen because its sleek and has a nicer wing.

A nice video

to get you warfighters all excited..:D

Aussie Rhinos Inbound

ADFMedia — March 28, 2010 — The Boeing-built Super Hornets are Australias first new combat aircraft type in 25 years. They will replace RAAFs 37-year-old F-111 fleet, which will retire at the end of the year.

They have flown from Naval Air Station Lemoore in California, where Air Force air and ground crews have been conducting acceptance flights and ground tests.

Their long flight over the Pacific included stop-overs in Hawaii and New Zealand.
